Answer:

Ralph is looking at a vein (likely a muscular vein).

Explanation:

Of all three great types of vessel present in vertebrates (arterial, venous, lymphatic), only veins and lymphatic vessels may normally contain valves.  This is an essential feature of vessels which present low pressure flow, since it ensures that such flow is unidirectional.

Since blood cells are not typically found in lymphatic vessels, the vessel in question can be assumed to be a vein.

Sergio [31]

Answer:

Yes, the population of rabbits is in genetic equilibrium because both white and brown rabbits have equal chances of survival throughout the year. During the winter season, the brown rabbits stand out and are likely to be eaten by predators, but during the summer, white rabbits stand out and are likely to be eaten.

kicyunya [14]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"You determine that you have only 3 copies left of an important DNA fragment, so you decide to amplify it. Using flanking primers, how many PCR cycles would you have to run to generate over one billion (10^9) copies of the fragment? "

Answer:

Approximately 29 cycles of PCR would be required.

Explanation:

As you may already know, PCR is a technique used in molecular biology that allows part of a DNA molecule to be recycled into millions of copies.

PCR allows this replication to be done through cycles. Each PCR cycle lasts about 2 minutes and allows the DNA molecule to undergo the separation of the strands, the binding of the primers and the synthesis of new DNA strands through DNA polymerase. This cycle is usually repeated 32 times, but this number may change depending on the number of copies the researcher thinks is necessary.

In this case, if a researcher wants 10 ^ 9 copies of DNA, he must do the following calculation to find the number of PCR cycles needed:

32 ^ x = 10 ^ 9

x = 28.3 = approximately 29 cycles.

kondaur [170]

Answer:

A mutation may be bad and good depending on the particular environmental conditions

Explanation:

For example, the falciform anemia is a hereditary disease caused by a mutation where the ability to transport oxygen of red blood cells is reduced; however, this genetic disorder is widespread in some African populations because it is a condition that confers resistance to falciparum malaria. In consequence, falciform anemia is a detrimental mutation that may also be beneficial in endemic malaria regions.

Moreover, it is important to note that the higher proportion of non-synonymous substitutions are not subject to selection (only a minor percentage are positively selected) because they are generally localized within non-coding regions, thereby having neutral status.
